Hei Guys.
I wrote this addon for capturing from a FireFly MV camera.
Is ussing multithread intell library, so is OF 6, it wont compile in OF5

Instructions:

1) Unrar and copy ftp://juliolucio.com/ofxFFMV.rar to your addons folder.

user: openframeworks
pass: thed00d

2) Copy FlyCapture2.dll to your application bin directory.

3) In your project settings, add the path ..\..\..\addons\ofxFFMV\src
to the Aditional Include Directories, for debug and release configurations.

4) In your project settings too, add the path ..\..\..\addons\ofxFFMV\lib
to the Aditional Library Directories, for debug and release configurations.

5) Again, in your project settings too, add to the Aditional Dependencies the library path ..\..\..\addons\ofxFFMV\lib\FlyCapture2.lib, for debug and release configurations.

6) Download and install FlyCapture2 drivers from Point Gray.

7) Usse format7 settings to adjust the cameras resolution, and save the configs. ( In multiple camera capturing, all have to be the same).

If u are ussing multiple cameras, you should download and install the Point Gray FlyCapture2, syncronitation patch application. Application that must be runed before all tha cameras have the same sattings.

9) Include the addon ".h":

Code:

#include "ofxFFMV.h"

to your application header.

10) Add the grabber pointer to the private applications variables.

Code:

   //video grabbers for cameras Fire Fly MV
   ofxffmv*                vidGrabberFFMV01;   

11) In the aplication setup method, initialize the object. Use the resolution that u setted in the camera configuration Format7.

Code:

   vidGrabberFFMV01 = new ofxffmv( );
   //allocating pixels for camera images
   pixelsCamera0 = NULL;

12) In your application update method, add the frame grabing. (The isNewFrame needs some more work and will always be returned true)

Code:

vidGrabberFFMV01->grabFrame( pixelsCamera0 , 0 , isNewFrame );

if( isNewFrame){
      grayImg01.setFromPixels( pixelsCamera0 , camImagWidth , camImagHeight );

13) correct my spelling.

Enjoy guys.

Julio.

i'm getting this error

Code:

1>error C2228: left of '.setFromPixels' must have class/struct/union

Code:

grayImg01.setFromPixels( pixelsCamera0 , camImagWidth , camImagHeight );

This is probably because u are declaring in your header grayImg01 like a pointer
The error will dessapear if u use this sintasis:

grayImg01->setFromPixels( pixelsCamera0 , camImagWidth , camImagHeight );

I hope that works

Regards and sorry for my awefull english

great addon Julio!
That camera is really nice, 752x480 at 60 FPS, 1328x1048 at 23 FPS (FireWire and USB 2.0)
Thanks

Hi,
I am using latest release of Code::Blocks under Win32 XP/Sp2,
I add the path to the libs, as well as the DLL file in the BIN.
I checked all teh steps. I am using OF_precompiled.
ALso I checked the lib , it exports all stuff that I need.
but the linker says:

i'm using this camera in osx with libdc1394. if anyone needs a hand in osx then drop me a message and i'll bung an example together.
it's no so hard once you've got libdc1394 anyhow

Hi, I contact PTGrey support team
and they told me that with GCC I have to use the C lib (FlyCapture2_C),
because the VCC has a different notation (naming convention or something) about the classes
and methods? Weird.
so this code, does not work for me ;(
due to lib-what-ever-incompatibility, any ideas how to "convert" the libs to GCC/LD,
I mean to be able to link them?

best
regads

Hi all ! Hi Julio!
I've adquired one of this wonderfull camera FFMV-03M2M/C BW (fireWire a) and right now I'm trying to get it linked in my Visual Studio (v006) or CodeBlocks project (v0061) on Windows XP SP2, and them gives links fails with the libs. I've installed the FlyCapture2 driver as you comment and linked also the FlyCapture2.lib and dll instaled to the addon and bin folders.

I've added also the files from the SRC to the project and I got the same errors as ZEOS

Code:

obj\release\addons\ofxFFMV\src\ofxffmv.o:ofxffmv.cpp:(.text+0xdb)||undefined reference to `FlyCapture2::Error::~Error()'|
etc..

Julio, What about the settings you used to run the camera..I mean about SO (windows or Linux) , IDE (CodeBlocks or VS) and camera protocol (firewire or USB port).
Also Im tlooking to use the FlyCapture_C version, but Im still looking how, Im getting compile errors using the Image library inside FlyCapture2_C functions.

Regards

Hey !

I've got the fireFlyMV running in windows and firewire port, using the C mode ( this is similar FlyCapture2Test_C from fireCap examples... not multiple camera implemented.

to use this addon:
Use dll and lib -> FlyCapture2_C.dll (bin folder) & FlyCapture2_C.lib (project settings)
Use src\C folder -> Search Directories

TestApp.h

Code:

 #include "ofxFFMV_C.h"
        ofxffmv_C *       vidGrabberFFMV01;
        unsigned char *  pixelsCamera0;
        bool isNewFrame;

TestApp.cpp

Setup

Code:

        // use FireFly -> format 7 for camera resolution & properties
        vidGrabberFFMV01 = new ofxffmv_C( );
        pixelsCamera0 = NULL;

Update

Code:

       // use the first flireFly camera founded
       vidGrabberFFMV01->grabFrame( pixelsCamera0 , isNewFrame );
 

Enjoy it!

File comment: Use only the C folder for searchDirectories options

That looks like some problem with the FlyCapture2 library. Try contacting the Point Grey support people. Otherwise have you tried the ofxVideoGrabber addon? It should work with this camera although may not offer as many features as the Point Grey library.

Hey,

Did you setup the camera resolution and options as JulioLucio explains? Use format 7 for it.
Can u see the camera from there?

Hope that helps
